Just had a look at the site, fantastic stuff, I find guided meditation stuff in VR to be very therapeutic for work stress also.

Interesting, I'm working with a company called Applied VR who do exactly that. https://appliedvr.io/
Amongst other things.
The idea is that VR can help in all sorts of ways in healthcare, including reducing pain rather than taking anesthetics as well as having a nicer scene to look at than the sterile rooms. The results so far have been incredible.

Absolutely! Meditation is great in VR for all sorts of real world related issues. Another company I work with Limbix: https://www.limbix.com/
They do similar things, including meditation for therapeutic purposes as well as for helping patients through more severe disabilities.

Hope it was nothing too serious @Shadowmask72
The last time I was in A&E was taking a friend who'd suspected she'd fractured her ankle, around 11:00 on a Saturday night and the wait to have a doctor look at it... then a wait to have the x-ray was horrendous, something like 4 hours in total.
I'd have definitely benefited from some VR escapism, but having said that, probably best not to look like I'm enjoying myself too much when I'm trying to look sympathetic.

I actually believe workplaces could adopt a policy of "VR Time" .. if a person experiences stress they can go jump into a bit of VR to relax on a beach or go to space. UK has a really high rate of work-related stress and depression and more and more people are going to GP's for medication. I think VR in the workplace as a de-stress tool could be super beneficial for both employees and employers.
